Best decision I ever made *

  • Name: Jenny

  • Surgeon: Dr. Marcelo Hernandez
I had my surgery on Jan 31,2017. It was the best decision I ever made. The day of surgery I had a little gas pain. But nothing serious. I wasn't nauseous at all. Day by day I started getting better. Little by little my pain went away. After 10 days I had my stitches out and everything we well. Two weeks after surgery I was pain free. And feeling great. But i have to remind myself I just had surgery. I have started soft foods with no problem. Chicken. Tuna. Scrambled eggs. All doing well. I have lost a total of 23lbs so far and I am feeling great. I would tell anyone who is thinking about this surgery to do it. It will be the best decision you will ever make. I'm looking forward to becoming healthy and happy. For the first time in a long time.
